White House Pulls CNN's Jim Acosta's Media Credentials

The internet and news stations are full of the conflict between Jim Acosta from CNN and President Trump. Looks like Acosta's days of access to the
White house are over. For some reason I do not feel sorry for Acosta.. CNN will just send another to replace him; hopefully someone with more tact and
decorum..

Following the disgusting behavior in this morning's White House press conference when a journalist from CNN refused to hand his mic back to a
White House aide...

Watch Jim Acosta from CNN hit the young intern on the arm to keep the mic. Where’s the #metoo movement when you need them?

White House spokesperson Sarah Sanders has just confirmed CNN's Jim Acosta has had his media credcentials pulled:

"President Trump believes in a free press and expects and welcomes tough questions of him and his Administration. We will, however, never
tolerate a reporter placing his hands on a young woman just trying to do her job as a White House intern...

I agree with the President for once. Although I'm not a Trump fan I believe he should have stopped the press conference and turned to the Secret
Service Agent to his right and just told him, "Out". His behavior is disgusting and CNN should send him packing. My best,

Acosta seems to be way too pushy sometimes. I do not feel sorry for him at all.

He laughed on the air, when declaring that the Trump Whitehouse had locked him out of a press briefing earlier this year. "I'm trying to get into the
press briefing, but they've turned off my access badge, Jake! hahaha"

Trump didn't like Acosta's temerity. Trump got called out for dehumanizing people (in ads) who are migrants and didn't like it. How dare someone
question him.

Acosta has been vicious in his attacks, but because he's press, it's been put up with. There is a line though, and Acosta crossed it when he
physically went after the intern. The acrimony between press and admin is not her problem and it should not have spilled over onto her.
